My husband was just talking about the way time works during treatment. He said when he was going through the treatment, time moved so slowly. It seemed like treatment took forever. Now, looking back (4 months after treatment was finished), it seems like such a short investment of time to get your life back. To save your life, more accurately. It is true of so many things, I know, but the treatment will only seem like forever while it is happening. Once it is done and you start recovering, the memories will blur a little around the edges and your mind will forget how horrible it was.

Bonnie,

Pain, nausea and constipation will have the effect of slowing her days sometimes to a crawl. She won't start to experience these systoms as I said until around the 3rd week. Sleep will help pass the time but I couldn't sleep that much. I watched every Discovery channel show, every History channel show, every Judge whoever show, every news broadcast until I was seeing reruns!! I REALLY appreciated the fact that it is a mid term election year because I got to be bombared by all those STUPID elect me or don't elect them commercials. I think they contributed to my nausea and overall ill health.

Anemone,

Tell us(me) more about your husbands DX, TX and recovery. I am 2 months out of TX and I would like to know what to expect if our Tx was similar.
